Corey Sanders Embraces The Many Changes With Rutgers Basketball

At Big Ten Media Day on Thursday, I was fortunate to speak with Rutgers basketball star Corey Sanders. He returns for his sophomore season on the banks after finishing in the top ten in the conference last year in scoring, assists, and steals. Of all the players returning to the Big Ten this season, only Malcolm Hill of Illinois and Peter Jok of Iowa scored more than Corey did the previous year. Surprisingly, he was not among the ten players named to the preseason All-Big Ten team. Regardless, his return to Rutgers this season was a huge lift for the program.
